The Matador

Since their inception, The Matador have continued to cast themselves apart from the Australian mainstream of heavy music by pushing the boundaries of sound experimentation. Their progressive and dark undertoned layers of music range from down tempo, complex soundscape arrangements to epic, driving walls of earth crushingly heavy guitars, drums and vocals. With an imminent EP release on the way, expect to see The Matador continue to push these boundaries.

thieves

The Author

Two bands with the same name. 1) Many of the tracks listed here are errors, as audio production software Nuendo and Cubase automatically tag the mp3 exports as The Author - The Title as default. Hence unnamed mp3s are tagged as such.
However, The Author are also a band from The Channel Islands, who sound like a mixture between The Streets and Klaxons, if you can imagine such a thing. You can find them here http://www.myspace.com/theauthormusic

Crown Us Thieves

5 young lads from the South East of Melbourne trying to impact a local scene with a combination of harmonious hardcore/metal/rock. Crown Us Thieves means a direction change not only in the musical style, but in the message being put across. Having spent the last year playing shows under the name FINAL AFFLICTION, the name change is attempt to re-birth what simply was not working for the band. A lineup change meant the departure of Rico Adhitya early this year and arrival of one Peter Davies who we feel privileged to be working with.
